questions or doubts about job search process?

I don't want to be pigeon-holed into a specific industry, job title, or career objective. With my variety of job positions and my education; I want to keep all of my options open; you limit your potential opportunities if you categorized yourself into specific industry, job title, or career objective.

hardest or worst job you ever worked?

The most difficult jobs that I have worked at are supervision positions. I was immature in those positions and recognize my errors. I was not ready for that responsibility to both my managers and my staff.

best career advice you ever recieved?

From my domestic partner, the best career advice I've received is "Be yourself and you will be happy". Being you is the easiest way to succeed in any venture.

worst career advice you received?

The worst career advice I've received is to continue in a supervisor role. I wasn't prepared for success; I was prepared for an unfortunate work experience.

what are you looking for in your next job?

My goal is to obtain one of the following:
1) a position that requires an individual experienced in efficient and effective request processing, situational analysis, and communications for internal and/or external clients of a financial institution;
2) a position that requires an individual who values training of business related of children and adults and has recently completed their education for grades 4 through 12;
3) a position that requires any combination of the above two references in and industry/organization outside of the financial and education fields
